Which shafts
I have another question,
I really want to upgrade my shafts, currently just running Easton Powerflights 340's, they're OK but I'd like something a bit better. At this stage I'll stick with my 2" Blaser vanes and Lumenoks to go along with it.
I'm really out of my depth with shafts and definitely need some help on the subject. I shoot a Bear Mauler 27" Draw and set on 64lb (thinking of cranking it to 70lb).
I looked at CE maxima red 250 spine's but that was just because of a couple of reviews. What do people think are the best value for money shafts for hunting with my setup. I realise there are variables but just generalise.
Looking to spend under $200 a dozen unfletched. Bear in mind, everything is more expensive in Australia so add probably $50 on to any you guys buy.
Cheers,
GSP

Carbon Express arrows are over priced and over-hyped, in my opinion. I've been shooting Gold Tip Nugent and Velocity shafts for the past year, and I've been really happy with them.
By my calculations, 340's are a bit on the stiff side for your setup. Depending on shaft length and broadhead weight, you might do better with 400's.
